Siming District - Administration

Administration

Before the merge, Siming originally has five street offices (街道办事处):

• Binghai (滨海)
• Siming (思明)
• Wen'an (文安)
• Xiagang (厦港)
• Zhonghua (中华)

The above five are divided into 58 residential committees (居委会), and two villages: Zengcuoan (曾厝埯) and Huangcuo (黄厝). In May 2003, Siming's two neighbouring districts -- Gulangyu Island and the larger Kaiyuan -- were merged into Siming.

Xiagang Street was originally a district in 1950.

Today, Siming has ten street offices (街道办事处):

• Binghai (滨海)
• Zhonghua (中华)
• Xiagang (厦港)
• Lianqian (莲前)
• Jialian (嘉莲)
• Yundang (筼筜)
• Wucun (梧村)
• Kaiyuan (开元)
• Lujiang (鹭江)
• Gulangyu (鼓浪屿)

These street offices are divided into 95 residential committees (社区居委会)
